Defender 90 Options
The SWB defender - the 90" wheelbase model provides the ultimate in agility, handling, off-road ability and compact footprint for ease of use in town and off-road environments. As you might expect the shorter wheelbase and lower vehicle weight of the D90 provides an engaging driving experience, slightly more focused than a comparative long wheelbase model. Off road the D90's capabilities are legendary, although the iconic rugged styling has ensured the model has become a fixture in some of the more glamorous urban enclaves. All Kingsley Defenders are specifically engineered to produce Range Rover levels of comfort in the iconic classic Defender body style.
Body Style
The D90 is available in Hard Top, Soft Top, Bikini Top and Pick-Up body styles and can feature numerous external styling enhancements, tailored to your precise requirements. Some derivatives enable switching between hard and soft top options for comfort and compatibility with all seasons, especially with integration of our modern HVAC systems which actually work, compared to the modest efforts of the original D90.
Engine options
We offer a range of engine options from rebuilt standard units, both petrol and diesel, to enhanced derivatives with modern upgrades for improved performance and economy. Our real speciality however is fitting hand-built Rover and modern Chevrolet V8's which offer levels of performance and reliability, of a different magnitude to those associated with the traditional engines found in Defenders when they were new.
Running gear
Kingsley have developed a range of suspension packages for the Defender with revised dampers and custom springs which improve handling and dynamic performance. To harness the power of the new or rebuilt power units, we have also developed a range of heavy duty driveshafts and performance differentials offering different levels of strength and reliability. Our Defender big brake kit stops the most powerful engine options and are engineered to fit behind all Defender wheel options.
Interior
Whether you want a complete refurbishment of the original trim or the entire interior trimmed in high quality Nappa leather, with Alcantara accents, Kingsley can provide an environment inside your Defender tailored to your requirements. Air Conditioning, modern infotainment systems, sound insulation and panoramic roof conversions are just a handful of options offered, to create a modern luxurious interior within the size constraints of the rugged D90 exterior styling.
